Atlanta is the auto transport hub of the Southeast and it is not even close. Manheim Atlanta is one of the largest auto auctions in the entire country, processing tens of thousands of vehicles a month. ADESA Atlanta, Copart, and IAA locations add even more auction volume to the market. I-75 and I-85 cross through Atlanta and together they connect Florida to Michigan and the Northeast to the Southwest. I-20 runs east to west connecting Alabama and the Gulf Coast to South Carolina and the ports. Carriers are always in Atlanta because there is always another load waiting.
Pickups in Atlanta typically happen within 1 to 2 days. This is one of the fastest markets we work in. The sheer volume of auction activity alone means carriers are staging in and around Atlanta constantly. If your car is in the suburbs, Marietta, Roswell, Alpharetta, or the south side it is very smooth. Downtown Atlanta itself is manageable but as with most dense city centers carriers sometimes prefer a nearby meetup spot. The speed of this market is hard to beat.
Charlotte is the strongest auto transport market in the Carolinas and it has gotten meaningfully better over the last decade as the city has grown. ADESA Charlotte is on Fruehauf Drive in southwest Charlotte. Manheim Charlotte is in Concord, about 25 miles northeast. Manheim also has locations in Statesville and Kenly within the broader state network. IAA Charlotte operates in the metro as well. I-77 runs north-south through the city, connecting Charlotte to Columbia, South Carolina to the south and straight up to Charlotte Douglas International and eventually to I-81 in Virginia. I-85 runs northeast to southwest, connecting Charlotte to Atlanta in one direction and Richmond and the DC corridor in the other. That combination puts Charlotte at a natural crossroads for carriers running the Southeast.
Charlotte receives cars with very little friction. Carriers on I-85 between Atlanta and Richmond pass through the Charlotte metro regularly. Carriers on I-77 connecting the Southeast to the mid-Atlantic use Charlotte as a natural stop point. The result is that deliveries to Charlotte are reliable and do not require a premium in most cases. The Concord and Huntersville suburban areas are the cleanest for big hauler access. Uptown Charlotte near the Spectrum Center and the banking district can require a meetup in a nearby parking area but that is the exception, not the rule.
Shipping a standard sedan from Atlanta to Charlotte on open carrier currently estimates between $250 and $550. That is based on the 276-mile distance and current market conditions.
Atlanta runs at or slightly below the national average on most routes. The Florida corridor is extremely active with snowbird traffic from October through April, so prices on Atlanta to South Florida routes can fluctuate seasonally. Everything else is pretty steady and competitive. Routes to Texas, the Carolinas, Tennessee, and the Midwest are all well serviced. Get a quote to see current pricing on your specific lane.
Charlotte runs right at the national average or slightly below on most routes. The I-85 corridor to Atlanta is one of the most competitive lanes we work because carriers travel it constantly in both directions. Routes to and from the DC and Richmond corridor are very active. Routes to Florida are solid during snowbird season. Where pricing goes up slightly is on routes to the Midwest or West Coast because Charlotte is not naturally on those carrier loops and carriers have to make a detour to serve the market.
